In 2020, a lot of of our brothers and darlings have suffered horribly, such as losing close household and mates and falling sick. For them, we will need to make positive that 2021 is the start off of a actual human revolution, exactly where sensitivity, kindness, patience and gratitude are the loudest sounds we hear going forward.
And the superior news is that it is currently taking place. As a outcome of the pandemic, tens—maybe hundreds—of millions of men and women stepped out to support other individuals far more than they ordinarily did. Having discovered the joy of providing/assisting/supporting, it effortlessly turns into a habit.
Social media, also, which had definitely been accountable for some of the horrific attitudes that construct up all more than the planet more than the previous couple of decades, is turning about.
Today, everyone knows that considerably of what you see on Facebook and Twitter and on and on is just manufactured garbage its effect will decline quickly and the joyous component of social media—finding a person you knew when you have been 10, or improved but, obtaining mates from Facebook in unique components of the planet who have under no circumstances met each and every other develop into friends—will start to take more than. This is the real—and, let me say, intended—power of social media: to produce a worldwide village, thank you,
Mr McLuhan.
Of course, the industrial forces that have taken manage of this dream will need to be reduce to size, and the superior news is that—finally—the US is joining up with the work that the EU has been driving for quite a few years. It might be a bit early, but it is time to brief the FAANGS.
Indeed, the US is coming to grips with the reality that its financial program is failing badly.
I have an aunt who has lived in America for six decades she moved there when she got married, her husband was a thriving engineer, she ran a travel enterprise, they had two little ones and have been living the American dream—she was so into it, I used to contact her Mrs America. Her husband passed away some time ago, and although she’s in reasonably superior overall health, she is 87-years old and is living alone now, and regardless of all their savings, social safety and the rest, she is genuinely concerned about finding by even reasonably.
We have been speaking about it a couple of days ago and realised that she would be so considerably improved off in India (exactly where there is a lot of household) or any other “developed” nation in Europe or Canada, exactly where healthcare and education are cost-free, and she would be in a position to have a person come in or remain in to take care of her.
Well, the superior news—unfortunately, possibly not for her—is that the extended brainless (I would rather say that than heartless) financial cycle that started with Reagan in 1980 is turning speedy. Hopefully, the Democrats will win each the Georgia senate seats and Biden will start to appear like his fellow Democrat, Bernie Sanders.
Of course, right here in India, we have a totally unique set of troubles. It is challenging to contact our government brainless because it is definitely really, really shrewd and due to the fact it appears to delight in obtaining the word “HEARTLESS” written clearly all more than its face on the other hand, searching to the future of the nation, its strategy is as brainless as the trickle-down that has been driving America into a hole.
Clearly, it is ‘time up’—talk to the minorities, speak to the farmers, speak to any person who is genuinely a Hindu the turning point will come when India’s biggest minority, the ladies, stand up and demand that they are treated equally as every person else. It is coming—maybe not tomorrow, but certainly the day immediately after.
To be positive, we all have to work for it to prepare ourselves to handle this adjust and to make certain that the nation is run with the sensitivity, kindness and patience that 2020 has taught us.
Significantly, 2020 has also taught us the truth that quantum physicists, (some) acidheads and all accurate Hindus know—sab likha hai!
It does not matter who you are, how clever you are, how wealthy you are—life will get you if it desires to there’s practically nothing you can do about it. To be positive, you have to do your job be sensible, retain a secure distance, put on your mask, retain oneself sanitised, but it your quantity is up, it is UP.
As it says in the Bhagvad Gita, your only job is to do the work and not even appear at the outcome.
Love and joy and Happy New Year!
